To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, RACHEL KELsALL, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at 3 Southdean Gardens, Wimbledon Park Road, in the county of Surrey, in England, have invented a new and useful Improvement in VVorkboxes for Domestic Use, of which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to work boxes for containing tapes, silks, cottons, buttons, pins and the like for general domestic use.

In the accompanying drawings. Figure 1, is a plan of the top of the box; Fig. 2, is a front elevation of the box; Fig. 3, is a plan of the top of the chest of the drawers inside the movable body m, and cover 8; Fig. 4, is a front elevation of the movable board 70, Fig. 5, is a front elevation of the chest of 6, is a back elevation of Fig. 4.

In carrying my invention into practice I construct a platform a mounted on feet 3) and on this said platform a I build up a chest of drawers 0 having a division in the center to receive a vertical board k. This said board is provided with spikes i and to support scissors, thimble and the like, the board 70 being removable. A hand hole Z is provided at the top of the board is for re moving it from its position shown in Figs. 3 and 5, when it is desirable to replace the body m and cover .52 Several drawers 6 with knobs f are provided as shown in Figs. 3

and 5, for any useful purpose, the two top drawers are provided with pin cushions g. In Figs. 3 and 5 a platform cl is provided having vertical spikes It for supporting reels of cotton. The aforesaid apparatus is provided with a body m having handles a loosely pivoted to pins 7 also is added a top cover 8, this said cover 8 is provided with half round headed buttons 9 to stand on a table or the like when the remainder of the work box is in use. The body m is secured y one or more hooks 0, to eyes p fixed to the top of the platform a, as shown in Fig. 2.

The board It is removed from its socket t, and laid loosely on the top of the chest of drawers 0, when it is desired to cover the same with the body cover m, and cover 8.

The apparatus is constructed of cardboard, but any other suitable material may be used.

I claim:

A work box having in combination a platform supported by feet, said platform supporting a chest or framework fitted with drawers slidable in or out of said chest or framework, a second platform provided with a number of spikes for supporting reels of cotton, a vertically extending board provi ded with spikes for supporting sewing im- 7' plements. the first mentioned platform having a socket member for removably receiving said board, a body cover having loosely attached hooks to be detachably received by corresponding eye-pieces fastened to the first mentioned platform, said body cover having a top cover provided with buttons adapted to serve as supporting means for said top cover and loosely pivoted handles attached to said body cover.
